    Thank you for that recipe, I'm trying it tonight. I have made the brownies using black beans and they are good, but I would rather cook using clean foods and less preservatives.

    Garbanzo beans are also known as chickpeas.

    I like making chocolate protein pancakes.

    I'm in love with nutella. I could eat a whole jar in a couple days if I could, so I made my own hazelnut spread that is similar to nutella. Will post recipe when I make some.

    I really do miss chocolate, I was have a craving today and made some hot chocolate/cocoa, they one I use is 40 calories per cup.

    If you're in the U.S, Swiss miss does 25 calorie cocoa: http://www.hungry-girl.com/newsletters/raw/1459

    Skinnytaste has some great chocolate recipes, this chocolate sorbet looks great: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/08/chocolate-sorbet.html

    Weight Watchers has this recipe for sweet lovers. I tried the choclate and it was good.

    Ingredients
    1 package(s) regular white cake dry mix
    1 serving(s) diet soda (any flavor)

    Instructions
    Mix cake mix with 12 oz of diet soda! Stir until cake is completely mixed in, some lumps will remain. Bake cake or cupcakes to box instructions (using the least amount of time recommended). Some recommendations for flavor combinations: diet root beer + spice cake = my favorite diet 7up/sprite + any flavor cake diet cherry coke/pepsi + devils food or chocolate cake diet cherry 7up + white cake diet orange soda + white or chocolate cake for toppings/frosting (points plus not included) I recommend using some powdered sugar with the same flavor of soda for a "light" glaze.

    I made this too and it is SO GOOD... but do you have any of the nutrition facts on it? I add walnuts and cover it with Fat Free Ready Whip! Oh my so good! I just don't know how to count it.

    I make instant hot cocoa (I buy mine at krogers for only 25 calories) then add 1/2 tsp peanut butter...yummo!! Just the perfect hint of peanut butter heaven to go with my chocolate, I call it bliss in a cup.

    I also take a banana, slice it, add honey, cinnamon, and a tiny bit of unsweetened cocoa powder mix it up and taste like dark chocolate dipped bananas, yum!! I only use about 1/2 Tablespoon of honey
